FilmThreat.com Hopes to Crowdsource Print Relaunch
The magazine Film Threat has been around for a long time. Founded by Chris Gore in Detroit in 1985, it relocated to LA a few years later and kept pushing paper until 1997, when it became a website-only enterprise.
Gore sold in 2010 to New Jersey based Mark Bell, who now wants to bring back a print edition by the end of this year. To do so, he has come up with an unusual way pay his writers; he wants YOU to sign the checks:
In order to create and print the first four issues of the new quarterly magazine, create the mobile app and digital friendly editions and pay everyone involved, it’ll cost $60,000 (some of you are going, “That’s high! He’s crazy!” and others are going, “That’s Not Nearly Enough! He’s Crazy!”).
